Wissenswertes
In the baseball game scene, Michael Rezendes, Sacha Pfeiffer, and Walter Robinson can be seen in the background.

Patzer
At least two times, Mr. Rezendes can be seen drinking a bottle of "New England Style IPA". That kind of beer was not produced before the start of 2010s.

Zitate
Marty Baron: Sometimes it's easy to forget that we spend most of our time stumbling around the dark. Suddenly, a light gets turned on and there's a fair share of blame to go around. I can't speak to what happened before I arrived, but all of you have done some very good reporting here. Reporting that I believe is going to have an immediate and considerable impact on our readers. For me, this kind of story is why we do this.

Crazy Credits
Immediately before the end credits roll, there is a brief summary of what repercussions occurred after the initial story was published, including numbers of stories, priests accused, and survivors in Boston, as well as a note on the continuing cover-up via reward of abusive priests. There is also a list of 203 cities in the United States and around the world where other major abuse scandals have been uncovered.

Not often that a film truly entertains as well as informs...

Sometimes, a film of this type makes a real impact... just sometimes... But, it very often doesn't have any impact at all like in the case of movies like Dark Waters (Dupont) or Deepwater Horizon (BP) or Love & Other Drugs (Pfizer/Eli Lilly) or The Big Short (Banks) or Thank You For Smoking (Tobacco)... I'd like to think that this film had at least a measurable impact on society and more specifically, the amount of sexual abuse cases in religion... and that in itself, is commendable.

The film does a good job not only focusing on the main cast of characters, but also spends some time focusing on the sub-supporting characters, like the 'survivors' in the film and spends a good amount of time on the investigative part of the whole story as well... journalism like this didn't just fall out of the sky... it took months and months of hard researching and interviewing many many different people...

They obviously took some creative license wrt. the events and timeline of certain parts of the film, but overall about 90% of the events shown in the film actually happened. And overall it's a good film and a fantastic docu-movie that should be viewed by all at least once.
